5 Tips for Pain with Sex After Baby
Did you know that 9/10 women experience pain with sex after they deliver their baby. That is a pretty freaking high number!
My biggest tip? ️ Take penetration off the pedestal At least initially...
Instead, start with self-exploration and external stimulation only. Remind those tissues of what pleasure feels like.
When you feel ready, here are a few tips to relax your pelvic floor in order to decrease the likelihood of pain:
Practice pelvic floor relaxation exercises prior to sex
Make foreplay your best friend
Perform deep belly breathing prior to and during insertion
Use lube!
Try positions where you can control the depth, speed and angle of penetration
If you find yourself experiencing pain, dryness, decreased sensation or inability to climax, contact me to set up an appointment!
You deserve to have pleasurable sex and allllll of the orgasms. Okay? Okay ❤️
